A resonant sweep: lows off, highs off, or a band
A resonant filter with three modes: lows through, highs through, or a band. Push RES toward 1 and it sings at the cutoff, which is the acid sound, the squelch, the telephone. CUTOFF runs the whole audible range on a log scale, so the sweep feels even from sub to air.
As FILTER: X is CUTOFF, Y is RES. Touch to engage, lift to let go, HOLD to keep it.
Four to a socket, in order: sound runs through the slots top to bottom. Open the box and every knob is in real units; BYPASS takes it out of the path without losing its settings; the presets are along the top; any knob learns a controller and gets an automation lane.
| Knob | Range | Starts at | Scale |
|---|---|---|---|
| CUTOFF | 20 Hz to 20000 Hz | 1200 Hz | log |
| RES | 0 to 1 | 0.2 | linear |
| MODE | LOW PASS · HIGH PASS · BAND PASS | LOW PASS | steps |
Every box ships with a bank. AS SET is the knobs as you left them; the rest are starting points, each a sound someone wanted often enough to name. Star one and it sits at the front of the bank.

Every box is also a line of the console's language, so a pad or a patch can carry its effects in text. The words are the knobs:
